Gobena Coffee

I was reading on one of my favorite websites for orphans, lifesongfororphans.org, and came across a coffee company that gives 100% of its proceeds to orphan children world wide. According to their website, "Gobena Coffee offers fresh-roasted, organic, shade-grown gourmet coffee delivered right to your door. Gobena Cofffee founder's adopted child was saved by an Ethiopian man named Gobena. He had found the baby girl abandoned in a yard near his home. His act inspired them to start a coffee company where 100% of the net profits are reinvested in the lives of orphan children throughout the world. Each time you purchase a bag of coffee, you are providing hope and life to children who do not have parents caring for them. To learn more, visit: www.gobena.org."

While their prices may be a little higher, it's a win-win: you have gourmet, organic coffee and (more importantly) orphans around the world are given much needed aid. I know of very few organizations where 100% of the proceeds go toward a charity, which makes this one outstanding. Whether or not you like coffee or are broken over orphans, this is an easy way to help change the face of a growing global problem one cup of coffee at a time.
